Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it says: pretty-print JSON using Expanso pipelines. It requires the expanso-edge binary to run and provides two modes (CLI and an HTTP server). There are no requested secrets. If you start the MCP HTTP server, be aware it binds to 0.0.0.0 by default and has no built-in authentication—avoid running it on a public interface unless you add network-level protections. Otherwise it is safe and coherent with its stated purpose.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: expanso-json-pretty
Version: 1.0.0
The OpenClaw skill 'json-pretty' is designed to pretty-print JSON input, and all analyzed files (YAML pipelines, skill metadata, documentation, and tests) consistently support this stated purpose. The pipelines utilize built-in JSON parsing and formatting functions within the Expanso Edge runtime, without any evidence of external network calls, file system access beyond standard I/O, shell command execution, or attempts at prompt injection against the AI agent. No sensitive data access, exfiltration, or persistence mechanisms were found, indicating a clear alignment with its benign function.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name, SKILL.md, skill.yaml and pipeline YAML files all align: the skill's sole purpose is to parse and reformat JSON (CLI and HTTP/MCP modes). Required components (expanso-edge) match the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions only tell the agent to run expanso-edge with the provided pipeline files, run an MCP HTTP endpoint, or deploy to Expanso Cloud. The pipelines only parse/format JSON and add metadata. One operational note: the MCP pipeline enables an unauthenticated HTTP endpoint (0.0.0.0:${PORT:-8080} /format), which is expected for an HTTP formatting service but could be exposed if started on a public network.
Install Mechanism
There is no install specification and no code to download or execute; this is instruction-only and relies on the expanso-edge binary being present. Low install risk.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, no credentials, and skill.yaml has empty credentials. The files and instructions do not reference secrets or unrelated environment variables.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent system-level privileges or modify other skills' config. Autonomous invocation is allowed (platform default) but the skill's scope is limited.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install expanso-json-pretty - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/expanso-json-pretty - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
